Operations General Manager High-Volume Hospitality | Leadership | Growth | Innovation

Competitive Base Salary + Exceptional Performance Bonus Opportunity

Help Build the Future of Hospitality.

Ethos Hospitality is seeking an exceptional Operations General Manager to lead one of our premier hospitality concepts. This is far more than a traditional restaurant management role—it's an opportunity to build leaders, improve systems, influence company-wide initiatives, and help shape the future of a rapidly growing organization.

As we continue to expand, we're looking for a seasoned hospitality professional who thrives in high-volume environments, develops exceptional teams, and believes great businesses are built by great people. If you're searching for an organization where your leadership matters, your ideas are valued, and your career can continue to grow alongside the company, we'd love to meet you.

Compensation

We believe exceptional leaders should be rewarded accordingly.

Competitive base salary
Strong performance-based bonus potential
Paid Time Off
Comprehensive benefits package
Leadership development opportunities
Advancement within a rapidly growing hospitality company

Why Ethos Hospitality?

At Ethos Hospitality, we believe the best organizations don't simply open new locations—they develop great leaders who are ready to lead them.

We're building a company where innovation is welcomed, accountability is expected, and continuous improvement is part of our culture. We empower experienced leaders to challenge the status quo, refine existing systems, create new ones, and help build scalable operations that support long-term growth.

Your ideas won't sit on a shelf. They'll be heard, supported, and—when they make us better—put into action.

Lead More Than a Restaurant. Lead a Movement.

We're passionate about redefining what hospitality can be. Every day, we strive to raise the standard through exceptional ingredients, thoughtful sourcing, and an unwavering commitment to quality.

Our commitment includes:

Organic, grass-fed, grass-finished proteins
A commitment to eliminating seed oils throughout our food program
Organic, third-party tested coffee selected for quality and purity
Cold-pressed juices crafted with premium ingredients for both our refreshers and beverage program
A true made-from-scratch culinary program built on craftsmanship and attention to detail
A hospitality experience where exceptional food, beverage, wellness, and genuine guest connection come together under one roof

We're looking for leaders who believe raising standards isn't just about operations—it's about creating something guests can feel, team members can be proud of, and communities remember.

Your Scope of Leadership

As Operations General Manager, you'll own every aspect of the front-of-house operation while partnering closely with Culinary Leadership to deliver one seamless guest experience.

You'll lead:

High-volume full-service restaurant operations
High-volume liquor, beer, and wine bar operations
Specialty grab-and-go coffee operations
Hosts, Servers, Bartenders, Barbacks, Food Runners, Drink Runners, and front-of-house leadership teams

You'll also:

Recruit, coach, mentor, and develop future leaders.
Build a culture rooted in accountability, hospitality, teamwork, and continuous improvement.
Evaluate existing systems and develop scalable solutions that support company growth.
Partner with executive leadership to improve operations and implement innovative ideas.
Own front-of-house financial performance, including labor, beverage cost, inventory controls, operating expenses, and profitability.
Analyze key performance indicators to drive operational excellence and guest satisfaction.
Create an environment where people are challenged, supported, and inspired to build long-term careers.

Who You Are

You aren't simply an operator—you build organizations.

You're energized by developing leaders, improving systems, and creating cultures where people perform at their best.

You likely have:

5+ years leading high-volume, full-service restaurant operations.
Proven success overseeing high-volume bar and nightlife operations.
Experience developing salaried managers and future hospitality leaders.
Strong P&L ownership and financial acumen.
A passion for coaching, accountability, and operational excellence.
The confidence to introduce new ideas while respecting what already works.
The ability to thrive in fast-paced environments without sacrificing hospitality.
A relentless drive to improve people, processes, and performance.

What Success Looks Like

During your first year, you'll:

Strengthen and develop an exceptional leadership team.
Improve systems that create long-term operational excellence.
Elevate guest satisfaction while driving strong financial performance.
Prepare future leaders to support our continued expansion.
Help shape the operational foundation of one of the fastest-growing hospitality companies in the industry.

This Is More Than a Job

We're looking for someone who wants to build something bigger than themselves.

Someone who believes great companies are built by great leaders.

Someone who wants to leave a lasting impact on people, culture, and the future of hospitality.

If that sounds like you, we'd love to start the conversation.

Pay: $70,000.00 - $85,000.00 per year
